Takasago has been acknowledged by Walmart for our contribution to their sustainability goal.  Walmart’s goal is to eliminate 20 million metric tons of greenhouse gases such as CO₂ from their supply chain.

Walmart and the Walmart Sustainability Office recognized Takasago as one of their top–performing suppliers in 2012.

Last year, Walmart requested 3,000 of its suppliers to provide sustainability information through the Carbon Disclosure Project, an international not–for–profit organization providing the largest global system for natural capital disclosure.  Of the 1,100 suppliers who submitted responses, 58 percent reported more than 2,400 greenhouse gas emission reduction activities.  Takasago was able to report progress in our corporate efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which resulted in the recognition by Walmart.
